Got it working!!
I had this very same issue up until iv come to this forum! Now i get it working all the time. What you have to ensure is the the break pedal is pressed hard to the floor first and then the accelerator is pressed hard firm to the floor! Hope this helps

I’m with 6G on this one. On my first 2020 wagon I tried LC a couple times on a deserted road and it’s a lot of fun, but it seems rather unwise to use this in any kind of traffic. The launch is very violent, and if you broke traction for any reason, it could get ugly real fast. It’s also really hard on your drivetrain if you care about keeping the car for any period of time. Oh, and to 6G’s point, if a cop saw you launch at a light they will almost certainly hit you with street racing, which, depending on your jurisdiction, could have some seriously stiff penalties attached to it.
I have almost 10,000 miles on my 2021 wagon and have yet to engage LC. I’m no grandpa either, Id consider myself a *very* spirited driver, probably a little too aggressive at times.
